Ask Dr. Drew
Harmeet Dhillon: LIVE from Washington DC w/ DOJ Attorney Michael Gates โ€“ Ask Dr. Drew โ€“ Ep 479

I'm really excited about the job description, which is enforcing the civil rights of the United States for all Americans, not just some Americans. And there's so much to do. Literally, Michael can tell you, I don't think my team is keeping up with the ideas I'm dumping on them. Like, look at this civil rights violation. Can we do something about that? Can we not? How do you find them?

Ask Dr. Drew
Harmeet Dhillon: LIVE from Washington DC w/ DOJ Attorney Michael Gates โ€“ Ask Dr. Drew โ€“ Ep 479

How do you see them? I mean, social media and people calling me. Wow. Absolutely. It's like falling from the sky.

I think I'm getting plenty, but no, we want to know. And not just, I mean, like. The one thing I will say is that I see some rage on social media that in the less than three weeks I've been there, we haven't solved all the election law problems in the United States. People care about their issue.

Yeah, I mean, people were asking me about knitting. Where's your knitting, Harmeet? And I said, knitting is for closers. And until I start closing some cases... No sweater will be finished. I asked her about the knitting today. Until I'm done with solving some problem. So we're starting. We're starting beefs with the right people. So election is one of your things you're excited about.

Ask Dr. Drew
Harmeet Dhillon: LIVE from Washington DC w/ DOJ Attorney Michael Gates โ€“ Ask Dr. Drew โ€“ Ep 479

Election laws are one, but federal election laws. I cannot fix every dumb law in California. We can fix federal law enforcement of our election laws. And Congress needs to... you know, get off the stick and do some things as well. We cannot fix everything through the executive process.

But the anti-Semitism and the anti-Christian bias happening throughout our government and our schools, we are tackling that every single day. That is not going to be there by the time we're done. It will be painful for schools that enable that. And those conversations are happening on an ongoing basis at the Ivy League schools and below.

That's a good Southern accent you did there, Drew.

Unfortunate. Well, you know, I think now... Yes, it was unfortunate. Very unfortunate for many people. And so we can't solve all the problems in America at the Civil Rights Division. I thought we'd solve them all today. But we are adjusting staffing. We are refocusing our priorities. And we're going to do a lot of good.

Well, he had gone through so much by that time. And then there was divine intervention as well with the attempts on his life, I think.

I believe that. God was looking out for him. He turned his head at just the right time. Yeah. So when you've gone through all of that, it just toughens you up and strengthens you. I mean, for me as a lawyer, the idea of maybe going to jail for representing a client was kind of scary or responsible for elderly people in your family as well.
